We wanted to share a sampling of the beautiful children whose lives were connected with those of Hope's Heart donors in 2008.  Each face has a story behind it of a precious little one graced by the generosity of compassionate individuals who donated to Hope's Heart.  These few faces represent hundreds of others also impacted.  On their behalf, we offer a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you who invested in their lives.

Besides the sampling of beautiful faces of 2008 to your right, it has been a year of incredible blessings for many more of the oprhaned children of China.  Link to the specific focus area projects pages to meet many of these children invidually and read more specifically of the gift they received.  Join us in celebrating their lives and the joys they have received from generous donors like yourselves.  Here's a summary of the projects funded in 2008:
